From the digital submissions: young talent Ice Cream Orphan

Ice Cream Orphan, a Boston-based project that started out with vocalist Cam Pulaski and evolved into a full-fledged, three-piece indie band, just released their sophomore album Things From My Mouth this June. This often upbeat LP takes cues from early Death Cab, providing sad songs you can dance to, like “10th Anniversary” (streaming below), with its deceptively fast-paced and catchy chorus (“But you’re the only one that I could ever hold / And now I need you, though I left you months ago”) and “You Just Wanted to Feel Loved” with its trombone part. Their next show will be on August 5th at a house show in Tewksbury, MA. – Lilly Milman
